To replace, you will need to remove the back cover by removing the two screws. You may need to extend the long hair trimmer to get to the second screw. Take off back cover to access inside. You can unsolder the battery from the circuit board but for easier replacement, it is sometimes suggested that you use a modified installation technique. This is to break the tabs off of the old battery with small needle nose pliers rather than unsoldering it from the circuit board. This allows the old battery to be removed but leaves the tabs attached to the circuit board. You can then solder the tabs from the new battery to the old existing tabs

It signals that it needs to be recharged. If it does the exact same thing after a recharge it means that the battery inside it have aged and no longer hold the charge - it should be replaced.
Unfortunately the battery is a custom one that is available only thru Philips repair centers and it's expensive. Actually it's so expensive that it's not worth replacing - for almost the same price you can buy a new shaver.
